Aoraki/Mount Cook
Manage episode 353776791 series 3197435
New Zealand’s highest peak, Aoraki/Mount Cook, lies at the heart of a national park that supports mountaineering, hiking and cycle tours.
Things to do range from dangerous mountaineering opportunities to simple,scenic daywalks and the start of the Alps 2 Ocean cycle trail, which goes all the way down to Oamaru.
Mount Cook Village, at the foot of Aoraki/Mount Cook, is totally accessible by car and bus, and you can use it as a base for activities that are as adventurous as you like.
In this episode, I also talk about my adventures on a High Alpine Skills course.
